Noelie 103 Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Be angry, be pissed off, be fuming, be madder than hell, be ballistic, pout if you like, but don't be unduly surprised if this January window closes with nee bugger other than Kenedy coming in to enhance our survival chances. Mind you, I wouldn't be surprised if we get some last ditch mediocre additions on the final day, grasping at straws, pouring burning oil on the troubled waters.

Kid Dynamite 6986 Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 SSN saying we are interested in Slimani. I know it’s probably bollocks but I’d much rather have him I’ve Luuk De Jong mk2 at Feyenoord. He’s got experience of the league, can play as a target man and isn’t a 1 season wonder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 21809 Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 they're going to want a hefty amount of the £30m they paid for him back, aren't they? and he's 29. i don't see the fat man going for this one, though i agree he'd preferable to the untested danish kid.

trooper 940 Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Rafa Benitez kept his cool when questioned about (lack of) transfers on Friday afternoon but was clearly far from happy. The United boss says that he personally doesn’t get involved in the transfers, but stated that he gave Mike Ashley his list of transfer targets ‘A, B and C options…’ and is still waiting to see if they end up being signed. “We have given a list with A, B and C options…we have to wait until 31st January, then we will see.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Compared to the losses we’d face being relegated again I can’t see how it wouldn’t be worth it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isegrim 9732 Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 He doesn’t care about it. As long as Sports Direct gets media coverage by being associated to Newcastle and regardless of the league his ownership fulfills its purpose. He is not willing to speculate to accumulate but just to keep the club running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will forever be a poor club with Ashley picking who they sign. Is this common in European football? In N.A. you have the coach and General Manager that make trades and draft picks. The teams where the owner gets involved too much usually stink, see the Cleveland Browns. It seems that this is a normal practice for Rafa because he's still here!

Jintsay 2 Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 I think the Ashley PR machine are pretty fucking good like. To be fair, I want them not to sign Jorgensen as he's a bit shit. So I'd rather no signing than the 20M signing. Which they bid 12M for. But whatever. I don't want him. Ashley in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rafa: "A B C, Easy as 1 2 3 As simple as do re mi A B C, 1 2 3, Get me a player from ABC." Ashley: "D E or G Easy as 1 2 3, As simple as Lee Charnley, D E G, 123, That's all you'll get from a cunt like me." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
